Easter In Troy 2009

We as a family meet up about 3 times a year, once at Thanksgiving, once at Christmas and last but not least Easter. Mom & Dad can't drive to Troy for Easter anymore, so the last couple of years Margaret & I have taken them with us . It seems like a long trip to go for the short time we can spend together, but any time together is always fun. Dad doesn't like the traveling. Each year he says that this is his last trip to Troy for Easter.



It's always nice to catch up on everyone's busy lives. Our kids have now become the responsible adults and we the old folks. They take on mortgages for homes and start to have kids. Funny thing is now I'm consider a Senior Citizen. Our girls drive down from Cleveland. Diane has settled in a comfortable relationship with Cang. Elaine choice to change careers to a paralegal has been a good one considering the financial state of the nation. Mike couldn't make the trip. He had a teaching commitment. Unfortunately, Jason couldn't be there because of logistics. Moving to Kansas City, Mo. to take on a new job has brought the Texas Pedees, now the KC Pedees, one day closer to home. We recently drove there in 12 hours. I heard that Jason & family will visit us in July.




After an excellent combination of ham & keilbasa dinner, we all went out into Lou's backyard for pictures. Every time I take a picture of Mom & Dad, I think this maybe the last one of them together. All I can say is .....people enjoy your families. The memories you create, no one can ever take away.
